| Licenses & Requirements | | A Residential Builder may build a
new home from the ground up or may do any kind of repairs regulated under Article 24 of the Occupational Code.
The builder may contract for the whole job, but will have to subcontract for plumbing, electrical, and mechanical (heating,
ventilation, air conditioning) work to licensed plumbing, electrical and mechanical contractors. A Maintenance & Alteration (M&A) Contractor is licensed to perform only specific
trades and services and may accept contracts only in the trade(s) or craft(s) for which he or she is licensed.
The contractor's wall license and pocket card identifies the trades for which the M&A Contractor is licensed.
The pocket card contains a letter code that represents the trade or trades in which that contractor is licensed.
The M&A trades and their equivalent letter codes are: Carpentry (A); Concrete (B); Excavation (D);
Insulation Work (G); Masonry (I); Painting & Decorating (J); Siding (K); Roofing (M); Screen & Storm Sash (N); Gutters
(O); Tile & Marble (P); House Wrecking (R); Swimming Pools (S); and Basement Waterproofing (T). Beginning June 1, 2008, an applicant for a Residential Builder or Maintenance & Alteration Contractor license must complete
60 hours of approved prelicensure education prior to taking the examination or submitting a license application to the Department.
All prelicensure education courses
must be approved by the Department. A list of approved prelicensure education courses is available
on the Builders website at www.michigan.gov/builders under the "Spotlight" section. Courses
are still being developed; therefore, please continue to visit the Builders website for updated information.
The 60 hours of approved prelicensure courses must include at least six (6) hours in each subject below: 1)
Business Management, Estimating, and Job Costing
(6 hours);
2) Design and Building Science (6 hours)
3) Contracts, Liability, and Risk Management (6 hours);
4) Marketing and Sales (6 hours);
5)
Project Management and Scheduling (6 hours);
6) The Michigan Residential
Code (6 hours);
7) MIOSHA Construction Safety Standards
(6 hours); and
8) The rest of the 18 hours may come from other topics
on the approved course list. After an applicant has completed the 60 hour prelicensure
education requirement, he or she may obtain an Individual Residential Builder and Maintenance & Alteration Contractor
License Application on the Builders website at www.michigan.gov/builders, under "Forms & Publications".
The license application must be completed and submitted with the application fee, and a completed Residential Builder and
Maintenance & Alteration Contractor Prelicensure Education Reporting Form. A copy of the official certificate(s)
of completion given to you by the course provider must be attached to the prelicensure education reporting form for each course
you have completed. The certificate(s) must document 60 hours of approved prelicensure courses.
A course will not be accepted without the certificate(s) attached. The prelicensure reporting form is also
available on the Builders website. Once the Builders Unit receives an application, it will be reviewed to ensure
that the applicant meets all licensing requirements. The requirements for licensure include:
1) 60 hours of approved prelicensure education courses; 2) be at least 18 years of age; 3) be financially stable; 4) be of
good moral character; 5) submit any required documentation requested by the Department; and 6) pass the required examination.
An applicant must meet all requirements
for licensure before receiving approval by the Department to take the examination that is required to obtain a Residential
Builder or Maintenance & Alteration Contractor license. Once the applicant receives an authorization
to test, he or she may contact PSI Services LLC, the exam provider, at 1-800-733-9267, or go to the website at www.psiexams.com,
to register for the examination. After
the applicant passes both portions of the examination, a license will be issued as an Individual Residential Builder or Individual
Maintenance & Alteration Contractor. The individual license will allow an individual to perform work
as a sole proprietor, under their personal name or an assumed name from their County Clerk's Office. The individual license
may NOT be used for a corporation, limited liability company or partnership. If you are conducting
business as a corporation, limited liability company, or partnership, you must also apply for a second license which will
be for the company. You may obtain a Corporation, Limited Liability Company, or Partnership Residential
Builder and Maintenance & Alteration Contractor License Application on the Builders website at www.michigan.gov/builders,
under "Forms & Publications" or contact the Builders Unit at (517) 241-9288. SALESPERSON Individuals selling the work of a Residential Builder, or Maintenance & Alteration Contractor,
must be licensed as a Salesperson to that builder or contractor. Applicants must contact PSI Services LLC at (800) 733-9267,
or visit their website at www.psiexams.com, to register for the examination. Once an applicant has passed
the Salesperson examination, PSI will mail a license application to the applicant that has the passing examination information
printed on it. The applicant must then complete the application and submit it to the Builders Unit, along
with the required application fee. Applicants
for the Residential Builder or Maintenance & Alteration Contractor Salesperson license must be at least 18 years of age;
be of good moral character; must be employed by a licensed Residential Builder or Maintenance & Alteration Contractor,
and successfully pass an examination. BRANCH OFFICE A Branch Office is a separate
office location for a licensed Residential Builder or Maintenance & Alteration Contractor. If a builder
or contractor is operating out of more than one location, the second location must be licensed as a Branch Office.
A licensed Residential Builder
or Maintenance & Alteration Contractor may obtain a Branch Office license application on our website at www.michigan.gov/builders,
under Forms & Publications. The application must be completed and submitted to the Department, along
with the application fee. |
